Brittny – Manager/Pet Care Specialist

2-brittny

My name is Brittny and I spent most of my childhood growing up in the Malibu canyons. My true love for animals developed when I was just about the age of six and I discovered a feral cat and her litter of kittens right in my own backyard! My Grandma and I raised them, until we eventually found each one a forever home. At the age of twelve I moved to the South Bay, in the city of El Segundo. While growing up with cats, I never had the joy of having a dog…until a beautiful puppy named Charlie unexpectedly came into my life about five years ago. I was also able to find homes for her three siblings as well. That was the moment when I realized that I needed to pursue my passion for helping and caring for animals. During this new discovery, I changed my major and graduated with a BA in Communication Studies at California State University, Northridge. While working towards this degree, I was able to research and voice my opinions on issues surrounding our furry companions and show what beautiful creatures they really are. I am so fortunate to be apart of the Auntie Em’s team, and I am looking forward to sharing my love and dedication with each and every one of your fur-kids!


Lucas – Pet Care Specialist

I’m Lucas (aka Subro)! I grew up in the south of Brazil with my mom, our 15 dogs, two iguanas and a lot of hamsters! I was always surrounded by animals since I can remember and as I grew up I started to study animal behavior and became a dog trainer. I’ve been working training dogs and cats for 5 years and volunteered at some non profit organizations, helping animals to improve their adoptability and aided in rescuing them from the streets. I have two amazing rescued dogs and I couldn’t be more proud of them. Taking care of animals is my favorite thing in the world. My mission is to spread the word of ethical and positive ways to take care of animals and to make them feel truly happy. I’m really glad to work for Auntie Em, a person who shares the same motivation.” Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much”.


Kathy – Pet Care Specialist

My name is KATHY. Being a pet owner and caring for my furry family over 25 years has brought me so much love and a passion for caring about the well-being of our precious pets. Each wonderful pet are unique to them self and requires different needs as well as their owners. This new passion led me to leaving the corporate world to pursue the world of pet Sitting and Dog walking now for over six years, now. I’m excited to be a part of this team of Professional Pet Sitters and Dog Walkers. I care for all pets and walk all Breeds Large or small. All of my pets get loving affection, attention, walks or playtime and will attend to their special needs if needed. Coming from an athletic background, should your pet be in need of more vigorous exercise, I’ll jog/run or play ball depending on their ability and owners’ instructions. When venturing into the outdoors I’m observant and stay cautious of our surroundings to insure your pet has a safe enjoyable experience. I look forward to providing the peace of mind and the utmost care for your four-legged family member.

My name is Emily, I grew up in Manhattan Beach. I have always worked with animals starting in high school as a dog Walker to becoming a vet tech, and then on to working at the Los Angeles Zoo. Animals are my life! You can always find me volunteering at rescues, taking my dogs hiking or horseback riding in my spare time! My heart lies with all the pets which is why I still continue to walk and watch all your sweet babies. Can’t wait to meet them all!
